Rust is one of the most dangerous groups of phytopathogens, capable of causing epiphytotics in a short time and inflicting significant damage to both commercial plantations and private gardens. Understanding the mechanisms of fungal disease spread and the factors contributing to infection development is the foundation for building an effective plant protection system. For an agronomist and a plant production specialist, it is critically important to be able to conduct early diagnostics of pathogens and skillfully integrate chemical control methods with agrotechnical practices to minimize harvest losses.
This collection gathers materials covering both the specifics of rust control in intensive orchards and general issues of phytopathology in ornamental and agricultural crops. The reader will find expert recommendations on fungicide application regulations, strategies for overcoming pathogen resistance, and diagnostics of rot lesions. The reviews are supplemented with practical aspects of microclimate management in protected ground and methods for increasing plant productivity, which will allow for a comprehensive approach to the protection of sowings and plantings in modern farming conditions.
